Last Trip of 2013


Location: Backwater creeks of Charlotte Harbor
Time: 0830-1130
Tides: Outgoing
Weather: Overcast, pre-frontal conditions, Hi/Lo 73/62, Winds 10-15.
Vessel: Gheenoe
Fish: 20+ snook to 24" landed and 3 tarpon to 10 lbs jumped between two anglers.
Tactics: Spinning tackle. Light jigheads with soft plastic jerk baits were most successful.
Notes: Snook were hanging in deep water over muddy bottom. Saw but could not entice snook to 40" sunning on shallow mud flats. Tarpon were taken on exact same tactics as the snook.
